just curious how many people use different methods of map scrolling in sc2.
|
Pretty sure everyone is going to use side scrolling with the mouse as well as clicking with the minimap.
|
Middle mouse is used by most commentators, as it is the smoothest. Minimap clicking for huge jumps is obvious. Arrow keys for replays. Sides for games.
This is going to be true for everyone.

Middle mouse in game, I disabled side scrolling actually

Do you have really high sensitivity or do you go haywire with your mouse hand? Never figured it was possible to play only with the MMB.
Sidescrolling for me.

With my feet on an extra plugged in keyboard.
|
scrollin really is with side screen.. but i tend to click on minimap a lot to change positions fast

lol aweseome

Side screen scrolling, mini map clicks and double clicking hotkeys.
|
Usually use the minimap on alerts, but everything else is side screen scroll.
|
Side scroll like everyone else, but I'd love to use a "scroll ball" mouse (like Apple's old Mighty Mouse) to scroll the map. You get the fine control without he awkward hold-and-move of the middle click.
Hey, clicking on mini map is not scrolling... But since you have that option, how about spacebar/backspace?
|
I use middle-mouse scrolling with very high sensitivity. It actually allows you to eliminate mouse trips to the minimap as with high sensitivity you can move across the map in a fraction of a second. It also removes the need to move your fingers to the arrow keys. I think it's the superior movement method.
I also disabled screen scrolling.
|
I use arrow keys sometimes when there is no action, because it's just so relaxing.
But mostly side screen scrolling.
|
Mod, please delete. I don't know how I duped my previous post.
|
i use the keyboard on minimum scroll speed

Exactly this.
|
Middle click for local movements, minimap for switching locales. I don't remember what game it was that first got me using the middle mouse button, but since then it has always felt really awkward when I haven't been able.
Do you have really high sensitivity or do you go haywire with your mouse hand? Never figured it was possible to play only with the MMB.
I turned the middle click scrolling sensitivity up to 100% and I play with relatively high mouse sensitivity. I can make it about one half to one third of the way across a medium sized map accurately with one swipe of the mouse using the middle mouse button.
|
With Hotkeys on controlgroups
Sidescreen with mouse ... with a way to lol sensitivity
Huge Jumps on Minimap
Hit Space (why isnt it in the list?)
In this order.
|
I hotkey everything.. But at the start of the match I side screen scroll. I might use the middle mouse now that I know about it though.
|
Sidescreen for close stuff, minimap for far stuff, most of the time I double tap hotkeys for my main/army/scouts/production.
|
Max mmb sensitivity scrolling + pretty high mouse sensitivity. Quick flicks will usually go to naturals and 3rd's, while in-base scrolling is still controllable, but outside of that, minimap clicking.
Screen edge scrolling feels like wasted cursor movement to me. 
|
I wonder if people realise that you can increase the sensitivity of the MMB scrolling option???
Thats what i use and it is in no way too slow, and my mouse doesn't need to go crazy, just deft little moves...
EDIT:
^^ what he said...
|
Side scrolling for close places, minimap for far places. I dunno, seems kind of inefficient to do it any other way... Middle click goes too fast imo.
|
I use a combination of mini map clicking and side scrolling (sensitivity on max).
|
my friends hate how i play. I use the arrow keys (although much more in BW) and the side of the screen as well. Im sure it is putting a ceiling on my level of play, but i feel more comfortable with the arrow keys.
|
Side Scroll for sure.. minimap obviously when needed.

Why not use like, a DDR pad? 
|
This poll surprises me. I had thought that about 99% of people would click around the map using the minimap in conjunction with control groups.
|
side scroll speed at around 70% and clicking map for getting further faster, i'm also very control group heavy sooo yeah :o
|
cant believe some ppl use mmb :O
didnt even know u could do that lol

Is that a joke or are you actually the guy who made that "is using a ddr matt to scroll cheating" thread?

I swear to god if I ever go to a lan tournament I am bringing a DDR pad as a joke.

I use the middle mouse the majority of the time, and map click and side scroll only very occasionally.
I've had my DPI set very high for several years. Scrolling from the top to the bottom of Metalopolis is about one inch of mouse movement which still feels like a lot to me.
I'd like to be able to push the slider above 100%
|
MMB is the superior way if mastered, it is smooth and you can position your view wherever you want at the beginning of a battle without any possible over-shoots or errors.
for me it is due to dota/HoN, so it transferred to SC2 :>

I use the middle mouse scrolling almost exclusively for watching replays because in an actual game, I hate having to move my index/middle finger off the left and right mouse button. I guess the people who put their middle finger on the middle button and their ring on the right can benefit from it though.
|
For people with thumb buttons on their mice, have any of you guys tried setting the click scroll button from the MMB to one of the thumb buttons? I find it slightly awkard to click with the middle button, but I'm thinking that using the thumb might be more comfortable?
|
Combination of everything except the middle mouse button. Mainly use side screen mouse scrolling though.

Thats pretty much it. Though I've seen some people also use the keyboard.
|
Is it possible to remap MMB (Mouse 3) to Mouse 4? Thumb button that is?
|
sidescroll, double hotkey tapping + minimap for playing, mainly middle-mouse and minimap for observing while casting.
concerning the latter i still don't get why so many casters don't do that and thus have way less than decent observing.
|
Two of my friends do the keyboard scrolling and it really annoys me. They never use key commands because their left hand is on the arrow screen and it hurts their game but for the life of me I can't convince them to use the minimap and screen edges!
|
Arrows, except when it's too far I use the minimap or control groups.
